Want to make an application Make sure your CV is up to date, then read the following job specs carefully before applying.

Were supporting a major enterprise technology services provider on a critical infrastructure resilience programme for one of the UKs most complex and recognisable enterprise environments.
This is an opportunity for a hands-on Infrastructure Automation Engineer to join a fast-paced programme focused on improving large-scale recovery capability through automation, orchestration, and platform integration.
If you come from an enterprise infrastructure background but have moved heavily into scripting, automation, and systems integration, this could be a strong fit.

This programme is focused on modernising recovery capability across a large enterprise infrastructure estate.
Rather than relying on manual recovery processes or static documentation, the focus is on building automation-led recovery workflows using live infrastructure data, API integrations, and orchestration tooling.
Youll be working across a broad technology landscape, helping to integrate infrastructure platforms, automate operational processes, and improve resilience across a business-critical environment.
This is very much a delivery-focused engineering role rather than traditional infrastructure support.
